The air filter in your Ford Focus helps trap and eliminate contaminants from the outside air before it reaches your vehicle’s engine. Replacing the air filter in your 2004 to 2011 Ford Focus is a simple routine maintenance task that can improve gas mileage and overall performance. It is commonly recommended that you replace the air filter in your Focus every 10,000 to 20,000 miles, but your Ford’s owner’s manual includes the manufacturer’s maintenance recommendation. If you frequently drive in especially dusty or polluted environments, it may also be a good idea to replace your engine air filter more frequently than recommended. Signs that you may need a new air filter include odd engine noises, misfiring, poor fuel economy, or if you smell gas when starting your Focus. Make replacing your 2004 to 2011 Ford Focus’ air filter easier with these step-by-step instructions and video from O’Reilly Auto Parts.
